A Maybach on a rainy night? Talk to my Levadin!

The quickest way to achieve all of this is to leverage my father's business to solve the supply-side problems.

I need to have a good talk with my parents.

Now that I have official backing and funding for the drone project is about to arrive, I can make a little money with my parents. The government probably won't care too much.

PS: I feel like a live pig, the more I sleep, the more tired I get, and the more tired I get, the more I sleep. I said I'd take a nap at 7, but I slept until 4. I almost lost my perfect attendance bonus O(╥﹏╥)O.

Chapter 162 Going Home.

"Hmm...it seems the previous research was indeed correct; Draco's blood is indeed quite beneficial to you."

Looking at the test report in his hand, Warfarin nodded repeatedly.

"However, besides Draco, the blood sample you provided also contained some Great Flame Dragon genes. This should be the reason why the absorption of this blood was so effective. Based on my judgment, the Great Flame Dragon's bloodline seems to have some similarities with yours."

She looked up at Zhao Zizhan, her eyes filled with the curiosity and bewilderment of a researcher. "Your bloodline is really strange... According to gene fragment comparison, it should be a subspecies of dragon, but among the dragons known in Terra, very few have such a... bizarre bloodline."

Warfarin placed the report on the table, leaned back in her leather chair, and casually rested her feet on the desk: "Draco's blood is extremely rare, and your direct absorption is indeed the most wasteful method. I need more samples for comparative experiments, especially samples of high purity dragon blood from your body. If we could get some..."

"some"

Put the company's rescue equipment on

Zhao Zizhan answered decisively.

Ⅰ○ㄚi二２仈３0⑼ノ╲

"Ah...huh?"

"Yes, sis, yes, how much do you need?"

"Of course, the more the better, but we won't need too much. It's just that this kind of blood has never been seen in Terra before, so we need to build a research model from scratch, from gene sequencing to activity testing. Therefore, the initial demand will be a bit higher. Once the data is complete, we won't need much more. After all, what's the point of having so much blood that can't be drunk at all..."

Warfarin looked disgusted when the topic of dragon blood came up.

Perhaps this is the first time Warfarin, a blood demon, has complained that blood doesn't taste good.

"No problem, I'll take care of it right away."

This is it! I have a Dragon King right here beside me. Getting some blood is a piece of cake. I've been raising an army for a thousand days to use it for one!

Xia Mi, I need your help in my cultivation!

"Don't rush," she said, pressing Zhao Zizhan's arm to stop him. "As for your idea of ​​using this kind of blood to guide the learning of Originium Arts and to strengthen the body... I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve."

"Because this blood supply won't provide you with the same amount of blood as before, long-term blood draws are harmful to the body, and it's not a long-term solution for either of you."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zizhan slowly nodded. It was true; he had misunderstood. He had been so focused on how blood could aid martial arts training that he hadn't considered the issue of blood supply at all. Martial arts training emphasizes gradual progression and sustained effort. How could the blood supply from a single person possibly meet the demands of high-intensity training in the long run?

"Moreover, the specific effects of this blood on you will only be known after the research results of the high-concentration blood you mentioned are released and some experiments are conducted. There's no need to rush right now; rushing won't help. However, there's no problem with what you said about practicing martial arts. Right now, you're absorbing too much blood every day, which means you have too much energy to use. Practicing martial arts is indeed a good choice; it can improve your physical strength."

Warfarin shook her head: "You're a god too. In all my years, I've seen at least eighty or a hundred blood magic users. Some are starving and emaciated because they can't get any blood, while others are full and bloated every day. But I've never seen anyone like you, drinking blood every day to the point that you're practically overflowing with energy."

Well, there is at least some good news.

"As for what you said about wanting to learn a new Originium Arts, it's not impossible. Your current progress in Blood Magic is so fast that even calling it lightning fast is an understatement. I reckon Ducarre would call you a genius if he saw you. But you have to understand that mastering one Originium Arts is extremely difficult, and mastering multiple arts at the same time is even more difficult. You need to think this through yourself. Since you are a genius, I won't use common sense to restrict you."

"I understand," Zhao Zizhan nodded.

His thinking has never changed: to use the resources and industries of another world to help himself become stronger.

Since learning the Flame Originium Arts through bloodline doesn't work, I need to find another Originium Arts that suits me.

As for this new Originium Arts, I already have some ideas.

……

When it comes to joyous occasions in life, they are always like rain after a long drought, meeting an old friend in a foreign land, the wedding night, and passing the imperial examination.

While Zhao Zizhan and his group were on their way, news of their award had already reached Shilan City.

Shilan Middle School displayed a huge banner throughout the school: "Warmly congratulate our students Zhao Zizhan, Lu Mang, Xia Mi, and Lu Mingfei on winning the first prize in the National Youth Science and Technology Innovation Competition." The long red banner was hung on the teaching building.

A gust of wind blew, and the banner fluttered loudly, attracting students to gather around and watch, their chatter carrying far and wide.

"First prize in the Youth Innovation Competition! I heard there are only a few dozen places available nationwide!"

"They also have guaranteed admission opportunities—Wudaokou and Yuanmingyuan Vocational and Technical Colleges, those are top-tier universities!"

Winning first prize in the Youth Innovation Competition and receiving a guaranteed admission to the nation's top university are remarkable achievements, even in Shilan City, a place known for its talented individuals.

Meanwhile, the residents coming and going nearby couldn't help but discuss among themselves as they looked at the promotional banner: What kind of competition is this Youth Science and Technology Innovation Competition?

In this era, information dissemination was not as rapid as it would be in later years. As a competition for purely insiders, the Youth Innovation Competition was far less well-known among the general public than traditional literary competitions like the New Concept Writing Competition, which could lead to success in one's writing career.

Furthermore, due to copyright protection considerations, the winning projects of the Youth Innovation Competition will only be published in a collection of winning works in the second year as a record.

The process for the Youth Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition has been almost completed. Zhao Zizhan and his team are a sure thing to win first prize. Their guaranteed admission to Wudaokou and Yuanmingyuan Vocational and Technical Colleges has also been finalized. They have received all the recognition they deserve. However, in order to protect the winning projects, the organizers have deliberately kept the details vague and have not revealed a single word of the specifics.

Xia Mi has no parents, and Lu Mingfei's uncle and aunt are being pressured from above, with the legal process being handled specially. With conclusive evidence and witnesses and physical evidence, they are being detained to the fullest extent of the law, so they are not happy. Chu Zihang's stepfather is only fulfilling his responsibilities to Chu Zihang, but he still prefers his mother. His biological father has been taken away by Angers, and Ms. Su Xiaoyan is always cheerful and has no concept of the Youth Innovation Competition. So the happiest people right now are Zhao Zizhan's parents.

These days, Old Zhao is in high spirits, always beaming with joy. He greets everyone with a smile, walks with his back ramrod straight, and before he can finish three sentences of conversation, he can't help but launch into his standard routine: "Hey, did you know? A few days ago, our country held a National Youth Science and Technology Innovation Competition. The scale of it was incredible! All the talented young people from across the country went, and every single one of them is a pillar of our nation's future!"

QQ: ⒏ 14 9 03 79 8

He paused, deliberately keeping them in suspense, until they asked with interest, "And then?", before continuing, "My son, though not very talented, also went to join in the fun—guess what? He won first prize!"

"First prize? That must be a lot of money, right?"

"Ugh, talking about money is so vulgar! You've already lost if you talk about money in this kind of thing. The key is, the key is that Wudaokou and Yuanmingyuan Vocational and Technical Colleges offer direct admission! You can go to whichever one you want!"

He slapped his thigh, his tone full of emotion, "You have no idea how worried Lao Cui and I were—this kid was naughty when he was young, and his grades weren't great either. We were always thinking about how he was going to get into university. Now look what happened, he doesn't have to take the exam!"

These days, he uses the same routine with everyone he meets. If others don't respond, he'll force his way in, which makes his relatives and friends avoid him, afraid that this old man will show off again.

After a long and tiring journey back from Beijing, with a few days left in the holiday, Zhao Zizhan and his companions finally arrived home.

jiu liu ling yi er liu er qi ling

When Zhao Zizhan returned home, he was treated like a hero. As soon as he got out of the car, he was embraced by Lao Zhao and Cui Nianzhen. Cui Nianzhen gently stroked his cheeks with both hands: "Look at you, you don't know how to take care of yourself when you're out and about."

She frowned slightly, her eyes full of heartache. "The sandstorms in Beijing are so strong. Look at your face, it's all dried out like this, and it feels rough to the touch."

Only family knows their own situation. Zhao Zizhan's face was frozen in Ursus and blown by the wind, but he couldn't tell his mother about it, so he could only let Beijing take the blame for now.

"This must be Xiao Lu, Xiao Chu, and Xiao Xia. They all look so handsome... My son Zizhan is so lucky to have you all taking care of him..."

The group of people who had just gotten off the bus were a little reserved in front of Cui Nianzhen, especially Lu Mingfei, who didn't know where to put his hands. Chu Zihang was a cold-faced guy, and Ling was even more clueless. Only Xia Mi had the emotional intelligence to stand up and stepped forward to greet them sweetly: "Without Auntie, it's actually Senior Brother Zhao who's taking care of us! You don't know, Senior Brother Zhao is really amazing... During the competition, no matter what problem we encountered, he could always find a way to solve it. We all admire him very much!"

As parents, who wouldn't love to hear others say good things about their own child? Ms. Cui Nianzhen was quickly coaxed into a smile, and her gaze towards Xia Mi became increasingly satisfied.

Xia Mi: If Senior Brother Zhao is so rich, then his parents must be even richer. If I win over his parents, won't I also become incredibly wealthy? Plan works!

"Hurry, hurry, come in, come in! Don't stand outside. Dumplings on the way here, noodles when you get off. Your mom made your favorite noodles, come home and eat! You kids must be starving too, come on, come on, come inside..."

Old Zhao put his arm around Zhao Zizhan's shoulder and ushered him into his home.

"Senior Brother Zhao...Is this...inappropriate?"

Lu Mingfei began to have second thoughts. The happiness of Zhao Zizhan's family was so dazzling that he couldn't help but feel ashamed of himself.

What did you call me again?

Zhao Zizhan tilted his ear.

"Senior Brother Zhao?"

"Since you've already called me 'senior brother,' what else is there to say? Get your ass in here right now!"

Zhao Zizhan kicked Lu Mingfei in the butt, making him take two steps forward. Chu Zihang then supported him by the shoulder, and together they walked towards Zhao Zizhan's house.

"Time to eat!"

PS: This chapter is a bit short. Please allow me to adjust my time difference and take a short break before I finish writing the missing chapters for you.

Chapter 163 This is a misunderstanding.

Let me explain.

After a hearty meal, the elderly couple, relieved of their longing to see Zhao Zizhan return healthy and well, watched as he led the four children to their room for a private meeting.

Lu Mingfei slumped in his chair, propping his head up with his hands, still savoring the braised pork from the dinner table. Ling and Chu Zihang sat upright, while Xia Mi sat cross-legged on the bed, swinging her toes, acting as if she belonged there.

"First of all, we can't keep the fact that we're starting a company a secret, so everyone should tell their families first."

"I don't need to notify you."

I have no parents.

Zhao Zizhan looked around and then at Chu Zihang: "I'm talking to you, Chu Zihang. Don't look around."

The two immediately started joking and laughing.

"When you give the notification, remember the confidentiality agreement. Any details about our project must absolutely, absolutely not be disclosed to anyone! Otherwise, it won't be me, Old Zhao, who's in charge, but the whole country!"

"I understand," Chu Zihang nodded.

ー澪﹄２⑵ノ╲⒊○⑨⑻

Zhao Zizhan looked at the ceiling, let out a long breath, and his tone softened considerably: "Our group is now on the right track. From the beginning when we got together to figure out drones, to now with the support of the country, we have been able to get to where we are today. Everyone is crucial. Without you, even if I, Zhao Zizhan, had the greatest abilities, I could not have done this. I am truly very grateful to everyone."

Lu Mingfei quickly waved his hand: "Oh, Senior Brother Zhao, look at you, saying that! We just finished eating at your house, we're indebted to you for your hospitality, what are you doing?"

"That's it!"

Xia Mi chimed in from the side, "Why don't you just say what you want to say? This sentimental stuff is giving me goosebumps!"

Zhao Zizhan chuckled at their amusement: "Alright, I won't beat around the bush. Our business has now established a solid foundation. With the government's involvement, the company's foundation will be built up quickly, and subsequent resources and technical support will follow."

"I believe everyone has seen Spider-Man. I wholeheartedly agree with one line from the movie: 'With great power comes great responsibility. A true man is born into this world to wield his sword and achieve unparalleled feats. We brothers are born extraordinary, and we should strive even harder to make this world a better place.'"

"Drones are the first step in our project plan, and a very important one. There is still a lot we need to do next, such as developing more advanced equipment and establishing a more complete information network. In the meantime, I also have a new research and development project to do. Gentlemen, I don't know any other hybrids, and I don't care what they think. Whether they choose to hide among humans and live a life of seclusion or live a life of leeching off humans, I, Zhao Zizhan, only recognize my own brothers and will only walk the path I have chosen."

"The future holds many uncertainties, hardships and difficulties that are clearly visible, and there may even be life-threatening situations, but I, Zhao Zizhan, do not want to give up. I also ask my brothers to lend me a hand!"

跷0?⑵弍仈⑶○㈨⒏

After saying this, Zhao Zizhan clasped his hands in a salute and bowed to the group.

"Hey!!"

Chu Zihang was the first to react and immediately supported Zhao Zizhan, while Lu Mingfei and Xia Mi, who were standing nearby, quickly helped Zhao Zizhan up on either side.

"Brother, what are you saying?"

Lu Mingfei was genuinely anxious this time, and his voice rose a few decibels, "Aren't you putting your brothers in a dangerous situation? In the past, if you said go east, none of us would go west. Even if it was just danger, we would follow you through fire and water!"

"Yeah, what are you doing? You built this team from scratch. Even if you didn't say anything, everyone would still keep working with you."

Chu Zihang, supporting Zhao Zizhan's arm, said calmly, "No matter what danger there is, I will help. I'm always here whenever you need me."

Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang were only fourteen or fifteen years old, the age of youthful exuberance and passion. Who could withstand such a solemn entrustment? Although Lu Mingfei had lost his edge and become a loser in the eyes of others after being suppressed by life for the past three years, he never lacked the courage to sacrifice himself for others. Seeing Zhao Zizhan bowing down, he felt as if a fire was burning in his chest, his blood rushing to his head, and his eyes were even a little hot.

Xia Mi chimed in, "And you're asking me, Lao Zhao? If there's real danger ahead, would you give up what you want to do in the future?"

Of the four, she was perhaps the only one who understood Zhao Zizhan's implied meaning.

Four pairs of eyes stared at Zhao Zizhan.

QQ: 8-9-10/

"Life is in dire straits; if one is destined to accomplish great things, why should one hesitate to risk one's life?"

The four returned the greeting in unison: "Then how could I not do my utmost?"

……

Everyone expressed their feelings, drank and chatted happily, needing no further explanation, until the sun began to set before they prepared to take their leave.

Lu Mingfei stretched and reluctantly put down the Coke can: "Wow, time flies so fast. It feels like I just sat down not long ago."

"Let's go, let's go, or Auntie will ask us to stay for dinner."

Xia Mi laughed and jumped off the bed, casually tossing the plush toy back onto the bed and dusting herself off.

"Xiao Lu, you should go with Ling. The Regent Hotel is my family's property. Let her take you to stay there for now. Your compensation should be coming in soon, and then we'll help you look at a new house together."

Lu Mingfei paused for a moment, scratched his head, and hesitated for a moment: "Brother, I have no problem staying in a hotel, but sharing with Zero, is that...?"

Before he could finish speaking, his cheeks flushed slightly, and his eyes became somewhat evasive.

"Look at you, so fussy. The young lady hasn't said anything and you're already blushing." Zhao Zizhan waved his hand, "We must arrange an arranged marriage for our Xiao Lu."
